Adrice Cellars
“Passionate Renaissance Woman” would best describe Pam and her love of good friends, wine and warm gatherings that celebrate life and good works. Literally – want anything done? Pam’s your gal! Before getting into the wine business over 20 years ago…Pam dabbled in several different career areas from teaching to managing health clinics…but is clear that her head, heart and hands are at their best when making Adrice Wines. A Syrah woman through and through…Pam loves to experiment in her winemaking practices which she learned over the years from top West coast winemakers from California, Oregon and Washington. Preferring to let the grape stand on its own and speak for itself, Pam more often than not produces luscious, single-varietal wines…and her winemaking practices bring out the true character of the grape. Pam brings her experience and intuition to the winemaking process – crafting wines with patience and passion. Since her first vintage in 2012, Pam has been refining her skills and is humbled to already be an award-winning winemaker recognized internationally with over 50 awards for her wines in quite notable wine contests. Not one to shy away from working with difficult varietals – Pam flourishes in making small-lot wines with more uncommon grapes. Washington Pinot Noir?...unheard of! Montepulciano??...only in Italy. Primativo??? Dolcetto???...what’s that? And yet our customers and wine club members swoon over her wines

About the Winery
Alex Oh and Samuel Hilbert met in the summer of 2010 to enjoy a lovely sunset and wine at Golden Gardens. They talked about their lives, aspirations, and their mutual love for wine. Alex showed up with a bottle of Entre-deux-Mers and Samuel came with a bottle of Pinotage. They were both eager to talk about the wines they had chosen. At the time, Samuel was living in Woodinville, served on the Woodinville Chamber of Commerce, and spent his weekends working at wineries. Alex, on the other hand, was living in downtown Seattle and discovered that urban wineries were on the rise. With a background in law and science, Alex spent his days helping clients, including wineries, navigate complex legal issues, and his weekends working at tasting rooms and studying wine science.
In 2012, Alex and Samuel decided that it was time to turn their expertise and passion into something more. To learn from the best in the industry, Alex attended and graduated from the internationally acclaimed UC Davis Viticulture and Enology Program. Samuel, wanting to focus on Washington’s unique terroir, opted for Washington State University’s Viticulture & Enology Program. Aluel Cellars currently has three tasting rooms in Seattle neighborhoods – Capitol Hill, Ballard, and Queen Anne. Their love for Washington wines made in the traditional or old-world style is showcased in the wines handcrafted for Aluel Cellars. As for what’s next, they are working to build a brand new production facility, install vineyards, and open an additional seasonal tasting room on 15-acres on the beautiful Key Peninsula.

About Tieton Cider Works
The fruit that is used in Tieton Cider Works cider comes from Craig and Sharon Campbell’s Harmony Orchards. This land has been in our family since the 1920’s when our grandfather planted his first trees in Tieton, Washington.
As a third generation Yakima Valley farmer with a degree in horticulture from Washington State University and over thirty five years’ experience in marketing produce, Craig has always been curious about the history, production, science, and industry of food. Growing different varieties of trees is truly what makes Craig happy and he is always looking for new varieties to plant and nurture.
In 2008 he was introduced to cider apple varieties, those gnarly, inedible wild apple varieties needed to make great cider. He planted twenty five varieties in a test block of two acres to study the growing patterns: did each fit into the existing bloom and harvest schedule of the farm, what were the flavor profiles of the fruit and how did that variety add to the cider that we wanted to make.
We now have the largest acreage of cider apples and Perry pears in the state of Washington with 55 acres.
A love of land, food and drink has inspired us to make cider with the fruit we are growing at our ranch. We know the ciders we make are an expression of the harvest and reflective of the fruit and the place that it is grown.

In 1970, Enrique Forner founded Marqués de Cáceres, Unión Vitivinícola, S.A., a historic Alliance between a region (Cenicero, La Rioja Alta), an enterprising family that has been devoted to the wine trade for five generations, the best vine growers and vineyards in La Rioja and a Bordeaux concept which revolutionised the production and business model with a single objective: the quality to obtain the best wines, an obsession that today continues to be the leitmotiv of Cristina Forner, the third generation of this wine family.
Enrique Forner, Cristina’s father, worked in the wine trade as a boy. In 1920, his grandfather and his father founded ‘Vinícola Forner’, a family business devoted to the production, sale and exportation of wines in Sagunto (Valencia).
Exiled in France due to the Civil War, Enrique founded a similar business in 1952, in the Rhône and Loire valleys (France), and in 1963 he bought two chateaux grands crus classés in the Haut Medoc region (Bordeaux), Château Camensac and Château Larose Trintaudon, convinced that he would be able to make some of the world’s finest wines.
He returned to Spain in 1968 and, given that a century before wine-producers and merchants from Bordeaux had chosen La Rioja when fleeing the phylloxera plague, he opted for La Rioja and Cenicero, in the heart of the La Rioja Alta sub-region, to continue his great dream.
Enrique Forner turned to his friend, Professor Emile Peynaud, a true revolutionary of winegrowing and winemaking in Bordeaux in the 1970s and 1980s, in order to steep La Rioja in the same reformist spirit.

Land of the free, because of the brave. Today, we pause to remember those who fought for our liberty.

Let’s do this!!

Who says Sundays have to be boring? Not at REDS Wine Bar & Craft Beers! Join us tonight at 6 PM for a Mingo extravaganza that'll have you tapping your toes and shouting 'Bingo!' in no time. Let's make some unforgettable memories together! 🎉

🍷👌🏼

Craving crisp and refreshing? Look no further! 🇫🇷
Tonight's spotlight is on Le Coeur de la Reine Sauvignon Blanc, a delightful white wine from France's Loire Valley. This beauty is all about showcasing the classic characteristics of Sauvignon Blanc.

Think vibrant aromas of grapefruit, lime, and tropical fruit with hints of grassy notes. On the palate, it's light-bodied and dry with a refreshing acidity that will leave you wanting more.

Le Coeur de la Reine, which translates to "The Queen's Heart," is crafted with meticulous care in the Touraine region. This wine is the perfect choice for a sunny day on the patio or a delicious pairing with fresh seafood, salads, or even goat cheese.

Come experience a taste of France! 🍷

Willamette Valley calling!
Try the stunning Averaen Pinot Noir, all the way from Oregon's renowned Willamette Valley. This beauty is a textbook example of what makes this region famous for Pinot Noir.

Think juicy red fruits like dark cherry and blackberry, with hints of black tea and spice for added complexity. The smooth, plush texture is balanced by a vibrant acidity, making it incredibly drinkable.

Averaen uses sustainable farming practices and minimal intervention in the winemaking process, letting the pure quality of the Willamette Valley fruit shine through. ✨

Whether you're a Pinot Noir pro or just starting to explore this delicious style, the Averaen is a must-try! Pairs perfectly with lighter fare like salmon, roasted chicken, or even a cheese plate.

Latta Wines will be featured for Wine Wednesday this week!!
6-8pm!
Tastings are $15 and $5 off for all wine club members.
___________________________________
About the Winery
Latta Wines puts uncommon varietals from the most unique vineyards in Washington State on center stage. Years of scouring the geologically diverse soils of Eastern Washington led to an initial release of two very special wines, then four and so on. The extremely small production, mostly Rhone offerings are put forward from sustainable vineyard sites after fermentation with native yeast and aging in mostly neutral french barrique and puncheon.
Latta Wines was founded in 2011 by winemaker and owner Andrew Latta. It is the product of years of sweat equity, a gamut from cellar hand to winemaker at a Washington winery of note. Andrew is now proud to share his personal wines. He was born and raised in Kentucky, the restaurant world his path to wine. A similar trajectory up from the basement as a busser to a Sommelier working in Thailand exposed him to the wines of world. While developing award-winning wine programs, Washington State stood out among all the emerging and traditional wine-growing regions. So, sight unseen, fifteen years ago he jumped into his first harvest in Walla Walla and year after year Washington still delivers.
